The length of the section is three or four

which the sections are put together. A

ventilators in the center: a large one may
have three or -four of them: in Il NOW in
the barn there may be as many us are use
full, two or three or more, as the case
may be.
In stacking fodder corn it is safest to
make the stacks small. Three of these
sections placed together in Il column (as
seen i'll Fig. p are sufficient for IL stack
containing three tons of fodder. and which
would be about fourteen feet high. The
sheavcs should be small and the stack
somewhat open at the bottom. so as to
freely admit currents of air. The top of
he stack may be finished off with straw
or a hay cap.

FIRE PROTECTION.

II the snow squall had not snuffed out
the fire west Of town las. Friday evening
IL would have been hard matter for even
our magnificent system of yaterworks to
have saved the town. Very few realize
what prairie fire is in front ot gale
like that Of Friday. In this connection
we may again probably call attention 10
the hay and straw stacked about in some
portions of town with Lo covering. If we
remember correctly there is an ordinance
prohibiting this If SO, it should be en-
forced. II not the council should lose no
time in passing one to that effect 1t is
asking n little too much. even by good
neighbors, that the property Of the entire
town should be endangered to accommo-
date the few Suppose fire gets into one
of these hay stacks while a strong wind is
blowing? Well, besides the damage, it
will secure for somebody the unanimous
"cussin' of the town for dereliction of
official duty.
To prevent danger from prairie fires 1t
would be well to burn strip out little
way from town some day while 1t is calm.

The immense immigration to California
consisting largely of laboring men and
mechanics, has caused the carpenters
union at Los Angeles to issue a circular
warning working men against being mis-
led by the expectation that high wages
and steady work await t. EN- on the Pacific
coast The circular says that the Cali
fornia labor market is overstocked that
men without dollar III their pockets are
compelled to work at anything they can
find to do, while many seek in vain 70;
employment 1t shows that the cost of
living there is much greater than in the
east. Small cottages, suited TO the needs
Of laboring men, rent all the way from S25
10 $50 month, coal is $l6 ton, butter
and eggs 80 cents, and other necessaries
of life in proportion. This is conclusive
evidence that California is not so good
country for poor man as any Of the west
ern states or territories, where land is not
held at such fabulous prices.

The st. Paul Globe is always assump-
uous. 1t has essayed TO mould the Demo-
cratic opinions and politics for Dakota and
outlines its policies on questions of divis-
ion, admission and prohibition. 1t is ever
ready to belittle any public act of our Re-
publican leaders, and in puerile way
ridicules whatever is done by the South
Dakota people to forward the interests of
division and admission. 1t is busy de-
Tending one of the most corrupt adminis-
trations Dakota ever abored under. In
fact for an outside paper it has become
decidedly meddlesome. The majority of
the people are opposed TO the plans of the
Globe in every detail and the fact that il
dips into Dakota affairs with such avidity
is becoming irksome to South Dakota
at least.
